A warning has emerged that Bitcoin (BTC) reaching $1 million could be a warning sign of a global crisis rather than a celebratory moment. It is argued that war, debt crises, and the collapse of the fiat currency system could be the backdrop for a surge in Bitcoin.
According to crypto media outlet BeInCrypto on July 5 (local time), Ledger co-founder Eric Larchevêque stated that a $1 million Bitcoin is not good news. He explained that in a stable world, fewer people need Bitcoin.
Larchevêque emphasized that Bitcoin's role grows during wars, revolutions, and capital controls. He also mentioned the situation where US debt has surpassed $39 trillion. He believes that excessive national debt will ultimately lead to currency failure.
When asked about the era of Bitcoin at $1 million or $10 million, Larchevêque said, “I think it's a world with a lot of suffering.” He explained that while Bitcoin could be a lifeline in Iran, it might feel like an abstract asset to stable savers in France.
Conversely, Matthew Sigel, Head of Research at VanEck, presented reaching $1 million in about five years as a base scenario. Samson Mow, CEO of Jan3, predicted an 'Omega candle' with a surge of over $100,000 in a single day. Michael Saylor and ARK Invest also cite scarcity and institutional demand as reasons for their long-term outlook.
Larchevêque also expressed strong confidence in Bitcoin's long-term value. He holds most of his liquid net worth in Bitcoin. However, he assessed that a $1 million price is more a symptom of the failure of the existing financial system than a reward for success.
